Well, you know what the definition of a ranch or farm is don't you? It's a place where you dig a lot of holes and fill them up with money.  Roll Eyes

Aside form "Money Pit" or "Funny Farm", I too like the following -- in this order:

Katamount Trakehners
Timberline Trakehners
Wellspring Trakehners
Triad Trakehners

Focus on what you really want to emphasize and it will come to you.  Don't rush it -- it has to fit both the land and you!

For us, it was the location. We sorted through all kinds of indian names and historic names before we hit a simple one that was perfect for us and in English, not Yocut Indian or early pioneer.  

We're in Three Rivers CA, foothills of the Sierras, with a large foothill, (small mountain) behind us and the North Fork of the Kaweah River below us. We now live on "River Ridge Ranch."  Alliteration plus everyone can spell it, and it relfects the name of our nearby town.  We put the word Trakehners in place of Ranch when appropriate, but the rest of the time we're simply River Ridge in Three Rivers.

FYI  -
There is a Trinity Farm in Florida that breeds Trakehners!
Might want to keep that in mind when naming your place Wink

Katamount, are you a sci-fi buff?  How about Third Dimention Trakehners?  Just a thought . . . . Tongue

Hi everyone and thanks for all of the suggestions.

Was at the property yesterday...reviewing placements of the buildings so they can dig the wells.  Very hard to imagine the finished product by stakes in the ground.  It's all very exciting!

Still haven't decided on a name...I keep changing my mind so please keep the ideas coming.

Jennifer & Shadytrake - thanks for the additional ideas.  I like both of them.

Does anyone like Topline Trakehner/Farm? (Doesn't have the "3" theme.)

Think I'm going to end up having to take a poll...so that everyone can vote.  I really can't decide.   Huh

I think you should pick your favorites and them have a poll for us to vote, that is a good idea.   It might help.  How is the property coming along?  (BTW, I stand by my vote for Katamount Trakehners.  Wink  )
